Item Description

This is a single, fat, elongated crystal from this famous circa 2008-pocket that produced among best of species material. It exemplifies the qualities of this find: translucency, shimmering surface luster, and unusual tapering form. It has a pastel lemon-yellow color. It is hard to explain or convey in pictures, but there is a certain ethereal quality to these specimens that makes the crystals look "soft" and unusual compared to most other large crystalline species. And, this is a rather large example for this species in any case. It is certainly beautiful and dramatic in a case!
